As a native inhabitant, I experienced unpleasant guest kindness. In the Estonian way, we provide morning porridge to the guests, the guest is not left unserved, and there was nothing to offer for lunch if the desire arose. A rude unsolved case, On behalf of the lady of the manor. I hope that the guests will be offered better service in the future. Greetings Talo Margo 3 months have passed, and the change has worked well. In terms of the wellbeing of the food community, the change has been positive , people travelling in our region can enjoy our beautiful nature and cultural values on a full stomach :) I am the only one who is happy about this :) Welcome to South Esonia

Clementinum

The Clementinum is a historic complex of buildings in Prague. Until recently the complex hosted the National, University and Technical libraries, the City Library also being located nearby on Mariánské Náměstí. The Technical library and the Municipal library have moved to the Prague National Technical Library at Technická 6 since 2009. It is currently in use as the National Library of the Czech Republic.

Its history dates from the existence of a chapel dedicated to Saint Clement in the 11th century. A Dominican monastery was founded in the medieval period, which was transformed in 1556 to a Jesuit college. In 1622 the Jesuits transferred the library of Charles University to the Klementinum, and the college was merged with the University in 1654. The Jesuits remained until 1773, when the Klementinum was established as an observatory, library, and university by the Empress Maria Theresa of Austria.
